Agile QA & Test: A Shift in Mindset from Finding to Preventing Bugs

Although most software companies have adopted agile development these days, many still treat quality assurance (QA) as something that gets handled when coding is done and is “ready for test.” Use of this waterfall method to ensure quality costs teams in rework, context switching, slower code release cycles, growing bug queues, and the release of defects into production. Join Oscar Gracia and Todd Albers as they present techniques you can use to help change this ready-for-test mindset. Learn how to focus on testing and quality from the start by using a pre-grooming approach to ensure stories are detailed enough for developers to code from. Discover how conducting developer demos can help developers find bugs themselves. Join Oscar and Todd to get the tools you need to make iterative changes—both individually and within your organization—so you can shift the mindset from finding bugs to preventing bugs.
